To promote tourism projects that provide energy efficiency, use modern sustainable technologies in the field of construction and sustainable land use.
2. Brief description of the programme
The basic objectives of the programme is construction, restoration and modernization of tourism infrastructure in accordance with natural, cultural and landscape characteristics of a certain area (for instance accommodation facilities, use of thermal water, entertainment and recreational facilities, experience centres, ski facilities - cableways, congress centres, youth centres and other youth infrastructure). The state aid under the "Operational Programme for Strengthening Regional Development Potentials 2007-2013, tourism development projects is intended for both, public and private investors, where projects of the tourism SMEs are preferential. Particular consideration is given to the tourism investment projects that providing high level of energy efficiency, to projects that protect natural resources, to projects that use modern sustainable technologies in the field of construction and sustainable land use which contribute considerably to overall sustainable development. Due to problems relating with visibility of Slovenia as attractive tourism destination, the programme objectives are oriented as well toward development of adequate destination management structures at local and regional level, to enhancing know-how on integrated sustainable management methods and to activities in the area of destinations promotion and marketing particularly on promotion of tourism trademark Slovenia.
